Isn't "when everything kinda works" the end result "is actually wrong"
somehow contradictory?  I think you mean to say that the end result is
consistent but fails to process the values you specified.

This means that you get the expected values for the parameters but the
frame itself has the wrong sizes?

What did you use to produce this and does it only happen with scaling?
I still do not understand the nature of this bug in the first place.
